Shrinkflation has hit this once great Tsukemen restaurant hard. Previously one of TST’s great value for money lunch spots, the quality has unfortunately fallen off hard in recent years.
Comparing to the same lunch set in 2019, the bowl of noodles and dipping broth have both shrunk, the softboiled egg and green onions are gone, and we went from two generous slices of chashu pork to one wafer thin slice.

Read moreReasonably priced Japanese ramen/tsuekemen ( dipping noodles) on the outside of K11 mall. Had their spicy dipping noodles for $80.

At the end you can ask waitstaffs to bring you a pot of hot broth in a thermos to dilute the broth, turn it into soup. Service was super fast and...
